1,000 words (Pres. Bush/Sen. Byrd - what decency looks like)

One of the most touching photos in years taken by an AP photographer moved across the wires last night (Thursday) and few newspapers published it. The Daily Mail did. It showed President Bush helping Robert Byrd walk.
The occasion was the overdue awarding of a congressional Gold Medal to the Tuskegee airmen who served in World War II. There is irony there.
But there also is compassion from President Bush. This may be why the photo received so little play in the newspapers today.

God bless you, President Bush. Your kindness, character and decency NEVER falter, no matter the viciousness of your attackers.

Impossible. AP would NEVER send out a photo that makes Bush look good.

If the roles were reversed the Liberals would have screamed at Byrd for not knocking him down.

It will be a cold day in hell before the MSM ever publishes anything positive about Bush. Their hatred for the man is endemic.

Or would have said that Bush is weak and unable to even carry himself.

It's too bad that the point President Bush is making here is lost on many.

Whatever you do for the least of my people, so you do unto me.
Seems one man in that photo knows where those words come from.

Maybe he was helping him over to the stairs that lead down to the basement of the White House.
